By a vote of the Authority on July 1, 1957, it was resolved to offer the dwellings to tenant occupants at prices sufficient to realize an amount required to liquidate the indebtedness incurred by the Authority. The sales prices were determined after consultation with the State Housing Board, and the Veterans Administration, and of- fered Braintree Veterans an opportunity to purchase homes at costs substantially below the relative market value therefor.
During the years of operations by the Authority as a renting organization, the Commonwealth contributed as a subsidy the sum of $147,282.00, in order to provide ade- quate housing at low rentals for Braintree Veterans.
The sale of the ninety houses to Braintree Veterans will have been consummated in 1961, and starting with the year 1962, the Town will have added to its assessed value of taxable realty resulting from the disposition of these properties, about $450,000.00. It should be noted that streets, complete with acceptable drainage and in some instances sewer lines have been provided the Town without cost.
During the past 13 years, the Braintree Housing Au- thority as an unpaid board, has built roughly one million dollars worth of low rental public housing, has handled thousands in receipts and disbursements, and has played landlord to 90 family units, all without a breath of scan- dal and without any serious criticism.
The members of the Braintree Housing Authority through regular meetings, held bi-monthly, and special meetings as required, have maintained close contact with operations of the properties, resulting in an accumulation of approximately $117,000.00, to be divided between the Town and the Commonwealth, based on relative contri- butions to the operations of the Authority, accordingly, in liquidation of the business of the Authority, the Town. shall receive approximately $66,000.00 and the Common- wealth $51,000.00.

BOARD OF APPEAL UNDER THE ZONING BY-LAW
December 14, 1961
Office of Selectmen
Town Hall
Braintree, Massachusetts
Re: Annual Town Report
Gentlemen :
Submitted herewith is the Board's copy for the 1961 Annual Town Report:
"Nominally a report of a Board of Appeals sets forth the cases handled and the number granted or denied. In lieu of this type of a report, the Board is of the opinion that future applicants understand one phase which causes most dissension, to wit: "the variance." The Courts have clearly ruled that no one is entitled as of right to a vari- ance from the terms of a valid zoning ordinance or by- law. Thus a land owner in a zoned district has a right to expect that zoning ordinances shall have a fair degree of permanency. Variances are always in derogation of the zoning system. When an applicant request a variance, he usually stresses financial hardship. This is not the issue to be resolved. The hardship that the law speaks of is one which relates to the land in issue. If the hardship is not one unique to the property in question, but is one common to properties in the zoned district, then a true case of hard- ship is not made out. This being the case, the Board has no recourse but to deny the request for a variance.
Respectfully submitted,
HYMAN BORAX, Chairman
